Customer Ratings & Reviews

Not the greatest bang for the buck but you get a 3080, the cyberpower 3080 rig for the same price is better value since it comes with 10900K but this one has a full atx MSI mobo whereas cyberpower has mini atx. Here are the parts I got MSI - NVIDIA Geforce RTX 3080 VENTUS 3X 10G OC MSI Z490-A PRO ATX Motherboard 1TB SSD AData SU720 XPG Gammix 16GB (2x8GB) CL16 3000MHz RAM MSI 120mm AIO Cooler with RGB LED and RGB Fan FSP 650W PSU (not sure if it is 80plus gold or not) you're welcome!!

From the other reviews you already know what is inside this pc, so I am not going to talk about it. The case has good airflow and is very quite. Idle temps for cpu 36-40 C, for gpu 43-50 C (note that gpu fans does not work until 60 C in my setting). I played valorant and cpu temps were between 58-66 C and gpu temps 70-74 C after 30min of playing (1440p high settings) which is normal for rtx 3080 while gaming. However, if you increase the system fan speed using msi afterburner or dragon center. You will keep gpu temps at 66 C. I haven't overclocked my cpu. Therefore, 120mm liquid cooling is good so far but note that it might not be enough for summer temps, so it would be nice buy 240mm liquid cooling. This price is unbeatable for the parts of this computer, rtx 3080 cards are almost impossible to find reaching 1300-1400 dollars on ebay and it will likely to continue like this for months. The con about this built is 650w psu which might not be enough if you push it to the limits, however while gaming even cypherpunk, you will never pass 650w psu limit, because you have i7-10700k, not i9 10900k or other multi core new amd ryzen cpus, so do not worry about the psu. You can definitely go watch youtube videos to see the total powerdraw. Lastly, sata ssd is 2-4 sec slower then nvme m.2 ssd while loading games so nothing to worry about it, and the ram is good as well if you have the budget you can go buy 32 gb 3200mhz rgb ram. I just tried to be honest, I respected the bad reviews probably they got an item with problems or they have lack of knowledge about msi afterburner or dragon center to lower the temperatures, I did not encounter any problems, therefore, they definitely deserved 5 stars for this built.

Anyone that says this computer was good probably didn't wait till anything happened to it and then had to deal with MSI directly. The 1st one I ordered was dead on arrival. Mother board was bad. Purchased another one also from best buy. 10 months later the 3080 graphics card failed. I sent to graphics card to MSI with a RMA as instructed and they lost the graphics card. They sent me what they said was a new one (found out it was refurbished) at the end of December a month later. The new graphics card failed again in 7 months. MSI won't warranty this one because even though the part was new (refurbished), the warranty on the new part expired with the computers original warranty even thought I received a totally different part than what I sent them. I escalated for days and was told theres nothing that could be done. While arguing the fact that I received a part with what equated to a 1 month warranty since that's all that was left on the computer by the time I received the new card, I found out that the original computer I purchased that arrived with a dead motherboard was re-sold to someone else. I had registered the original unit before I knew it was d.o.a. so that old unit came up under my name and another person who purchased it several months later. I then asked if I could send it in to be repaired and I would just pay for it and was told that they don't repair parts that are out of warranty and that I would have to bring it to a private owned computer repair place. I was also told by MSI that their graphics cards have a 3 year warranty when purchased by themselves but since I purchased a pre-built computer, it only came with 1 year warranty. I wondered why that would be the case?? Bottom line is that MSI has a terrible warranty policy that is not consumer friendly and because of that, I have a big paper weight and have to wait to save up for a new computer (not MSI) because they wont stand behind their products. I'll also be going to the consumer protection agency with this one.

Needs a more powerful powersupply i went qith corsair 850w it came with 650W . NOW COOLING THE CPU GETS Ridiculously hot wen playing games.The problem is the 120m watercooler is in the exhaust position meaning all the hot air goes thru the radiator let the cpu cooldow so for now i flipped the fan so it pulls air in so i set up an exterior fan on top to pull the hot air out. The real fix would replacing the 120m water cooler with a 240mm one places on top or a 360mm one placed at the front.

Great PC, its a good option if you're trying to get your hands on a 30 series card. it needs an m.2, a better cooler, and at least a 750 Watt PSU those are my only gripes

I bought this computer earlier this year and fhe 3 front fans won't working. I didn't think much of it, a month later the computer started turning off out of nowhere. I took it in to have geeksquad take a look at it and they said the motherboard was damaged. The stors shipped it to the manufacturer and a few weeks later the store called me saying they're going to give me store credit. I waited a few weeks and saw that this computer was back on sale. I purchased this computer again and saw that the power supply was upgraded to 80+ gold and had a fancier looking 3080.

GPU was Dead on Arrival. Machine won't post with the RTX 3080, unfortunately. Put different GPU in this machine, and all was good. Since these are out of stock, I'll be left to deal with RMA from the manufacturer. Hard to tell if GPU was damaged in shipping or if MSI isn't testing their builds properly prior to shipment. Either way, more of an annoyance than anything. Build quality looks pretty good.

I usually build my own gaming pc, but times we live in makes it very hard on us all. To start out with like others have said the smaller 120mm cooler is not sufficient for the cpu. Mine gave out after 3 months of casual gaming. MSI makes you pay the shipping for me it was $150 and turnaround time of about 3 weeks. When I finally got it back after a few minutes of reinstalling the OS cpu warning went off and shut down. I called MSI back and they setup another RMA but this time they prepaid shipping. Being curious I decided to take the cooler off to check the cpu. My thoughts were confirmed the thermal paste was only covering half the cpu. I decided not to send it back again and reapplied thermal paste myself. Checking temps was averaging 85-90 during gaming. I switched out the cooler with a 240mm and staying around 65 while gaming. All in all not a terrible prebuilt but be prepared to upgrade right away. Plus I no longer have confidence in sending it back to MSI again.

This is a great product if don't plan to overclock. If you're like me, and planned on doing so when I purchased this, then you'll need to pay a bit more to upgrade to at least a 240mm AIO and a 750W PSU. After purchasing this last month, I've upgraded: -PSU to 850W 80Plus Gold from MSI -240mm AIO from MSI mounted to the top of case -Ram to 32GB 3600MHz from Corsair -500GB M.2 NVMe from Samsung After all of these upgrades, I'm now able to safely and reliably overclock the 10700KF to 5.0GHz (all core) at 1.31mV with temps at around 50-55C under heavy load and gaming and about 30-35C when idle. I was actually surprised that a 240mm AIO was more than enough to cool this CPU, as I thought I would need to get a 360mm AIO and mount to the front of the case. After a month of heavy-use, I've yet to have any BSODs or WHEA errors. I'm a competitive FPS kinda guy, and when I play games like Warzone or Valorant I experience no stutters or artifacts. The 3080 (Ventus 3X OC) is a monster; however, I do recommend playing games at no lower than 1440p as some games don't utilize this beast to it's full potential at lower resolutions. 3600MHz CL16 ram paired great with this system compared to the ram that came with the system as I saw at least a 15FPS jump in performance after upgrading. (Note: I do have my GPU undervolted to 0.950mV so benchmarks below will vary) Benchmarks from some games I've tested and played at 1440p, Ultra/Max settings: AVG FPS (w/GPU temps ~60C) COD Black Ops Cold War--156FPS (RTX ON, DLSS Quality) --197FPS (RTX OFF, DLSS Quality) COD Warzone--153FPS(RTX ON) --174FPS(RTX OFF) Witcher 3--154FPS(Hairworks OFF) --188FPS(Hairworks ON) Valorant--300FPS< Rocket League--200FPS (FPS Capped) Apex Legends--235FPS Star Wars BF2--140FPS

Fairly decent build but for the price of $2250 I expected more, even in this GPU price inflated market. This came with the MSI Ventus RTX 3080 which is an ok performer amongst 3080's but not the best in cooling and noise. Also, this came with a 1TB ADATA SU720 2.5" SATA SSD, which is an ok performer but for the price I expected an NVMe drive at least. It also came with a 120mm AIO CPU cooler of MSI's own design but for the i7 10700KF processor, which is capable of overclocking, it wont adequately cool the CPU if you intend on overclocking. The case is a good build quality and looks to have decent airflow and cable management support. It also has it own built in RGB controller and decent front IO with a USB Type C port. All the internal components are easily upgradeable if you know what you're doing. Which may be necessary if you want to get the most out of this CPU and GPU. If you intend on buying this just for the GPU then just know that the sum of the parts isn't really worth the total cost of this prebuilt computer. When I parted this system out in PC part picker and researched the MSRP prices then this system is really worth about $1,765. If the cost of this machine ever comes back down to around $1800-1900 then it may be worth it.

This computer crashed constantly within a few seconds of loading windows. Sometimes it would blue screen but mostly it would hard reset. After extensive debugging I found that GPU was at fault. I wouldn't have minded replacing a power supply if that could have gotten this running because I had the luck of using Best Buy's birthday month coupon and RTX 3080's are impossible to find. It makes me wonder if MSI might have put an returned card into this build. The assembly was very good, excellent cable management. The memory and SSD were both bottom tier options. For $50 more in cost they could have provided a significantly faster build but none of that really matters if the 3080 is defective.

First day got it, looks very nice and runs everything perfectly. Found the user's guidance very misleading tho. Only tested it on World of Warships on 4K max graphics so far. Running ~75 fps, CPU 50C and GPU 73C. Still downloading other 3A games but I don't think I will be disappointed. The only thing I am thinking of is the storage. I am fairly new to desktops so I am not sure if I can add additional HDD. It seems more effort than adding SSD. I saw in someone else's comment that he added SSD without any problem but SSD is a bit more expensive. If anyone did add HDD please inform me. That being said, I'm happy but if MSI gave us more reasonable storage and PSU I would be happier. What can 1 TB and 650W do at this age?

Excellent rig for gaming. I bought this to make the jump from Xbox to PC and I do not regret it one bit. Unfortunate that the 3080 has gone up about $400. Paired with a 144hz 1440 monitor, it’s amazing. Can’t wait for 4K monitors to go down a bit in price

Was lucky enough to grab one of these over Thanksgiving. the i7 10700KF + 3080 is excellent. I have been gaming at 1440p with max quality settings and hitting 100 - 150 fps on games like Horizon Zero Dawn. And the computer stays cool and quiet the whole time, unlike the i9 / 3080 combo I got from HP, the 30L, which while it looked better overheated and got loud. Whereas, this is about as good as a pre-built gaming pc you can find, or not.

Pretty satisfied with my purchase. Especially happy with the fact I was able to get an RTX 3080 in this build and not at a crazy marked up price. The only bad thing is I bought it at $2,300. Based off other reviews, it seems this use to be priced substantially lower.

Computer seems very well built. Cables and management are very clean. Components are all name brand. Mine had a bad Video Card. The 3080 was DOA.

This is a great pc with a sleak design. However, if you get the model with the RTX 3080 the PSU will not be enough. The unit ships with a 650watt and to safely run it in Extreme gaming preset you will need more power.

I love this PC - runs everything in 4k 120hz on high settings with ease. Great deal! Purchase two extra LED fans for the top of the case and 32GB of RAM. Runs like a dream

Reasonably functional pre-built with unobtanium RTX 3080. Decent case, undersized 650W PSU will not support overclocking either GPU or CPU. Definitely recommend manually checking all components, fair amount of DOA

Great gaming pc, plug and play.!!! Price isn't too bad considering the shortage. Don't really OC so the 650 watt PSU is not giving me any problems. No issues so far while working and gaming.
